Aston Villa v Sunderland - Match Thread

[Hampshire Villa]

This will be so disappointing not to capitalize on this game.

And in other games West Ham winning, Palace who have had a great start to the season winning at Chelsea.

That's a great comment frustrating and disappointing. Isn't that what being a Villa fan is all about!
Yes, it's sooooooooooo frustrating and disappointing.......
We always commit the same mistakes........
Shall we ever grow?

We are in deep trouble this season.  This is a game you have to win if you want to be clear of trouble.

I think we are seeing gradual improvement, and we'll be fine.

I think we should be showing more than gradual against a piss poor side like Sundrland

Well, we've scored twice and created other chances, we've dominated possession, and the new boys look like they're starting to understand each other a bit better. Our movement has been quite good in the final third. If Clark had cleaned out Lens instead of doing an impression of a little girl, we'd be looking at a good win.

Would just be nice to win a home game in the prem

And we have just faced Bournemouth and Sunderland that probably are the two worst teams.....

No, we've faced Man Utd and Sunderland.

Good point well made!

We don't win anything like enough matches but I can not believe people are rolling out terms like "deep in trouble" after four games. Insane.

Just like saying we were looking like potential league winners after four games last season would have been.

[Deano's Mullet]

Frustrated!

[Rudy Can't Fail]

Fucking hell Sunderland are woeful we desperately need to win.

We haven't done enough to deserve the 3 points.

I think we have really.

We've huffed and puffed but that's about it really.

[Tuscans]

People booing....baffles me.

[Marton]

Game time?

[Hampshire Villa]

2 points dropped!

I must stop looking at match threads, I thought the cricket thread was full of hyperbole but to be describing the fourth match of the season as a must win and such like is just silly.

Well a win, but I suppose any win at present has to be good

What a waste.

Really disappointed.

Ref gave us fuck all in the 2nd half, the worst bit their keeper and right back waste about a minute after the 4 goes up, ref makes a big show of pointing at his watch to say it's all being tracked, and then blows up dead on the 4 minutes.
